I think this song could be a reference to Pirates of the Carribean? I mean she did burn a lot of rum on the island? And johnny depp was a captain remember?

this song is definitely the closest thing to what 187 was on the other cd i think its compairing life to a pirate battle at sea your the captain and you crew is your crew. you try to show off to the other pirates and what not you get in a fight you get your crew to back you up. your fighting over a girl who it turns out doesn't feel the same way for you, you feel for her. and you end up getting beat.

This might just be me, but I think he got the idea for the song from Captain Morgan. It's called Rum Is For Drinking, Not For Burning, and he is singing about being a pirate. I'm probably wrong, it was just a thought.

okay so i over analyze alot of music, but you guys are taking this one a little too far. its not about hidden relationships. ever think buddy digs pirates? yea i do. the song is about pirates and how kickass they are and how it would be cool to be one and have the freedom of a pirate.
